Re: Mesos slave ID change after reboot

Yes, the agent used to check for the boot id having changed in order to
decide whether to try to recover.

Mesos slave ID change after reboot

[Srikanth Viswanathan]

I am trying to understand under what cases the mesos slave ID changes in
response to reboot.  I noticed this note at
http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/upgrades/#upgrading-from-1-3-x-to-1-4-x
:

Agent is now allowed to recover its agent ID post a host reboot. This
> prevents the unnecessary discarding of agent ID by prior Mesos versions.

I was wondering if the behavior prior to 1.3 is also similarly
well-defined. Is the answer "Will always change after a reboot"?
